POLYESTER COMPOSITION AND BOTTLE FOR CARBONATED PASTEURIZED PRODUCTS

摘要

This invention relates to polyester compositions useful for the manufacturing containers that minimizes the effect of secondary contamination during filling. More specifically, the present invention relates to a polyester bottle for use in filling of carbonated pasteurized products comprising at least one oxygen scavenging component that limits oxygen ingress to about 1 ppm or less when measured six months after filling, and at least one passive component that limits the carbonation loss to less than about 25% when measured six months after filing. The present invention also relates to a method of using the polyester bottle to minimize the growth of secondary contaminants in a carbonated pasteurized product.
